Or did he do experiments that were so simple and basic that other people just thought they were foolish? Sometimes, people think they already know the answer to a question or the solution(解决办 法)to a problem. Sometimes, they really do know an answer or a solution, but without thinking they are important. Charles Darwin didn’t settle for(满足于)just thinking he knew something. And, he believed all things could be important however simple they seemed to be. Suppose you drop sheets of paper that are of exactly the same size and shape. If you drop them at the same time in the same place, they will fall in the same way. Now make one of the sheets of paper into a tight(紧的)little ball and let it drop along with the other sheets. What happens? You have done an experiment that is so simple that you might think it couldn’t be worth anything. But this simple experiment is important. It explains part of our present day understandings of physics ideas that were worked out long ago by Galileo and Newton. And these understandings set aside some of ancient Greek physics. Scientist sometimes stops to look at very simple things and to think very hard about them. Even the simplest idea, which we might think is foolish, can shake the foundations of science. 36. The passage tells us that Charles Darwin . A. was a great English scientist B. always liked doing the experiments that others thought difficult C. thought even the simplest thing was important D. didn’t get well with others th37. The phrase “set aside” in 5 paragraph most probably means . A. throw away B. store up C. put to use D. realize 第 3 页 共 11 页 金太阳新课标资源网wx.jtyjy.com 金太阳新课标资源网 wx.jtyjy.com 38.

It is believed by all the people that things could be important though they seemed to be simple. D. Galileo and Newton worked out ancient Greek physics. 40.

Bai Minghui, a Beijing-based designer, creates his artwork using Tyvek, a synthetic(合成的) paper material which is difficult to tear, waterproof and, more importantly, totally recyclable. Born to a worker family in 1983 in Tangshan, Hebei Province, Bai worked as a graphic designer at a financial magazine in Beijing after graduating from Minzu University of China. In the spring of 2008, Bai visited an exhibition about Tyvek in Beijing’s 798 art zone, and then worked with the material, trying to bring his designs to life. The first thing that came into his mind was the paper wallet, a must-try handicraft assignment(手工作业)that most Chinese students do in elementary school. “A paper wallet is definitely more useful than a paper crane or frog,” Bai told Beijing Review, smiling. “At first, many people have no idea what it is, because it looks like a piece of newspaper or an express parcel receipt, and feels like real paper. But it’s hard to tear.” “The completed, folded wallet is seamless(无缝的), which creates so much fun for a designer. To be honest, I didn’t think about profits at all,” he said. After months of research and development on printing and designing, the first generation of his paper wallet made a stunning debut(上市)in May 2008. The second generation, which offers a greater range of pattern options, was put on the market at the beginning of 2009. “You can have graffiti(涂鸦)or write down phone numbers on it, or paint whatever you like. I would like people to be able to use it easily,” he said. “I don’t want to do things without creative ideas. Now my focus is on how to create better design rather than the wallet itself.” 46. In which order did Bai do the following things? a. create the paper wallet b. study in Minzu University c. work as a graphic designer d. visit an exhibition about Tyvek in Beijing A. c, b, a, d B. b, c, d, a C. c, b, d, a D. b, c, a, d 47. Which of the following words can best describe the designer? A. diligent B. creative C. friendly D. honest 48. Tyvek, a synthetic paper material, has the following characters EXCEPT . A. recyclable B. waterproof C. foldable D. profitable 49. What can people do with this kind of wallet? 第 5 页 共 11 页 金太阳新课标资源网wx.jtyjy.com 金太阳新课标资源网 wx.jtyjy.com A. They can use it as a handkerchief. B. They can make it into a dictionary. C. They can write their friend’s phone number on it. D. they can buy a paper frog or paper crane with it. 50. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Most of the Chinese students have tried to make some kind of paper work. B. Many Chinese are fond of painting different things on their wallets. C. Most of the wallets that people use nowadays can be recycled. D. Most of the designers based in Beijing have tried Tyvek to create their own work of art. D A child sits at his desk waiting for the teacher to hand back his test and praying that it is not sprayed with red marks. Fellow students in the classroom know a paper that has several red markings on it will usually receive a lower grade. The child with many red markings on his test will quickly fold the paper and stuff it into his desk in the hope that no one will see his test. There is an education movement to retire the reds for softer colors of purple, green, and blue pens to mark students’ work. Many educators understand the psychological harm the constant red markings on the paper do to a child’s self-esteem. After a child receives his test back with countless red markings there is a rare chance that he will bother to find out his errors. It is too embarrassing in the classroom to examine his errors and also many children do not want to show their parents their red stained test. The purpose of grading a paper or test is to identify the child’s weakness and offer suggestions to improve their ability in a specific subject. Red markings are too bold for the student to calmly understand their errors ; instead they become upset and begin their self-critical dialogue. No student wants to fail; they just do not know how to excel. All colors have an influence on our state of mind. Red is a powerful color that gives us energy. Colors such as blues and greens are calming colors to the body. Hospitals often have doctors wear blue or green scrubs because it relaxes the patient on a subconscious level. I have never seen a doctor wear red scrubs because it will stress the patient. Remember this when you decide to mark a child’ paper with red, the color of blood. 51. What is the text mainly about? A. How a child sees his test result. B. How to grade a student’s paper. C. The harm of using red color in grading students’ papers. D. Different influences of colors. 52. A child with many red markings on his test will . A. show his paper to others B. hide his paper from others C. correct as many errors as possible D. complain to the teacher 53. Students will not bother to find out their errors because . A. they have made too many mistakes. B. they are ashamed of their papers with red markings. C. they don’t care about the mistakes they made. 第 6 页 共 11 页 金太阳新课标资源网wx.jtyjy.com 金太阳新课标资源网 wx.jtyjy.com D. they are not satisfied with the results. 54. We can infer from the passage that . A. many educators still prefer to give red markings on students’ papers. B. we should mark students’ papers with various colors C. red markings are a kind of drive for students to learn. D. students who receive red markings on their papers may do worse. 55. The author of the passage probably agrees that . A. it’s better to grade students’ papers with softer colors. B. it’s not necessary to point out students’ mistakes. C. it’s wrong to retire the reds in grading students’ papers. D. it’s necessary to grade students’ papers with red sometimes 第二节 补全对话(共5小题，每小题1分，满分5分) 根据对话情景和内容，从对话后方框所给的选项中选出能填入每一空白处的最佳选项，并将答案的标号(A、B、C、D、E或F)写在第?卷指定的横线上。选项中有一个为多余选项。 What do you find hardest in learning English?
